NEW YORK -- Daniel Descalso took a calculated risk in a big spot.And it paid off big time.With his team trying to rally against Mets closer Jeurys Familia, the Rockies first baseman stepped to the plate with runners on first and second and nobody out.After fouling off his first two sacrifice attempts, he found himself in an unenviable position against the NLs save leader.Rather than swing away with two strikes, he squared to bunt again.The usually steady Familia stumbled for a second straight game, allowing two runs in the ninth inning and Colorado beat New York 2-1 Thursday for their seventh win in eight games.Less than 24 hours after Familias streak of 52 consecutive regular-season saves was snapped, the right-hander entered in the top of the ninth with a 1-0 lead, and couldnt hold it.Trevor Story had a leadoff single and stole second. After fellow rookie David Dahl walked, Descalso bunted up the first base line. Mets catcher Rene Rivera watched as the ball spun toward foul territory but it stopped fair, loading the bases with no out.I knew it had a lot of English on it and I was looking back to try to see if it was going foul and I guess it stopped right on the line, Descalso said.I didnt want to hit into a double play. Hes got a good sinker and if I put it in play good chance its going to be on the ground, so I decided to take a chance and get the bunt down 0-2.With one out, Familia (2-3) got pinch-hitter Cristhian Adames to hit a slow grounder to the right side. First baseman James Loney misplayed the ball and Story scored to make it 1-all. Familia then threw a wild pitch, allowing Dahl to cross the plate with the go-ahead run.Familia is as good as there is in the game, Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. Their staff overall, youre not going to come in here and put up big innings and big crooked numbers. Youve got to scratch and claw for everything.Dealing with a rare early start to open a series because of a camp day at Citi Field, neither offense was able to do much against starters Jacob deGrom and Tyler Anderson.DeGrom allowed only one runner to reach second base in seven scoreless innings.Rivera drove in the only Mets run in the second inning with a double into the right-center field gap, but was easily tagged out at third trying to stretch it into a triple.Anderson struck out five and walked none, allowing seven hits over six innings.The goal every time is to try to give up zero runs, Anderson said. You do realize in a game like this that if you give them up youve really got to try to limit them.Jordan Lyles (3-3) pitched a scoreless eighth for the Rockies, and closer Carlos Estevez had a perfect ninth for his 11th save.New York loaded the bases with no outs in the seventh inning off of reliever Jake McGee. Right-hander Scott Oberg came on to retire three straight batters to end the threat.Colorado had been 0-41 this season when trailing after eight innings before Thursdays win, a victory which snapped a 10-game road losing streak against the Mets.Thats one of the better wins of the year, if not the best, Weiss said. Really proud of our guys.WHO WANTS IT?Rockies catcher Tony Wolters and Descalso collided in front of home plate in the bottom of the fourth, both going after Wilmer Flores popup. The ball started in foul territory, but drifted fair. Each fielder fell to the ground after the collision, with Wolters holding on for the out. They both remained in the game.QUICK STARTDahl has hit safely in his first four games in the majors, including his first multi-hit game on Thursday.TRAINERS ROOMMets: 3B Jose Reyes missed his third straight game with a strained left ribcage, hurt during his final at-bat in the first game of a doubleheader on Tuesday. He was pretty sore last night when he left here, Mets manager Terry Collins said before the game on Thursday. I talked to the trainers before I left and they said theres just no way hes going to be able to play tomorrow. ... OF Yoenis Cespedes was not in the starting lineup due to a flare-up of a right quad injury first sustained on July 8. Last night he came in when the game was over and said it was starting to bother him pretty bad, Collins said. Cespedes was walked intentionally as a pinch-hitter in the seventh inning and was promptly lifted for a pinch runner.Rockies: OF Gerardo Parra (sprained left ankle) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Hartford on Friday. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Jun. 17, retroactive to the 15th.UP NEXTRockies: RHP Tyler Chatwood (9-6, 3.65) takes the hill on Friday night. He is 2-0 with a 1.57 ERA in four starts against the Mets. The 26-year-old won on Sunday against Atlanta, allowing no runs over five innings despite walking eight.Mets: LHP Steven Matz (8-6, 3.36) earned the win on Sunday in Miami, his first since May 25.

Nine days before the opening ceremony, organizing committee chief Dmitry Chernyshenko said Wednesday that Sochi is "fully ready" and will deliver safe, friendly and well-run games that defy the grim reports that have overshadowed preparations. Mike Piazza Jersey Large .C. -- Rodney Hood connected from all over the court while freshman Jabari Parker was busy swatting shots and scoring in transition. SAN FRANCISCO -- For the third time in his career, Madison Bumgarner took a no-hitter into the eighth inning. For the third time, it slipped away.No worries, though.The San Francisco Giants are headed to the All-Star break with the best record in the majors and a comfortable lead in the NL West, so Bumgarner didnt seem bothered that he lost yet another bid at the milestone achievement.Bumgarner allowed Arizonas only hit to Jake Lamb with one out in the eighth inning and matched a career high with 14 strikeouts to lead the Giants over the Diamondbacks 4-0 on Sunday night.I dont think a one-hit shutout ever stings, Bumgarner said. It felt good. It felt good all the way around.Bumgarner (10-4) retired 25 of the 28 batters he faced, including two double plays, and walked one while going the distance for the third time this season.Lamb broke up Bumgarners bid with a lined single to right field. Lamb also reached on an error in the fifth when right fielder Gregor Blanco dropped a flyball.Beyond that, San Franciscos four-time All-Star was nearly untouchable while notching his fourth career one-hitter.He was on with all of his pitches and wasnt putting a lot of effort into it, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. He was on top of his game. I know hes thrown one-hitters before but this was as impressive as any of them.The Giants lefty fanned Arizonas first five hitters twice apiece, and the Diamondbacks didnt hit a ball out of the infield until Lambs fly ball in the fifth.After Lambs single in the eighth, Bumgarner got Brandon Drury to ground into an inning-ending double play.Rickie Weeks Jr. drew a leadoff walk in the ninth, but Bumgarner retired Nick Ahmed on an infield pop-up then got Jean Segura to ground into a game-ending double play.When you get through seven and youve got six more outs to get you feel like you have a pretty good chance, Bumgarner said. It hasnt worked out for me. Thats all right. Ill take the complete-game shutout anytime.San Francisco was attempting to become the first team with no-hitters in five consecutive seasons. Matt Cain threw a perfect game in 2012, Tim Lincecum no-hit the Padres in 2013 and 2014 and then-rookie Chris Heston had one in 2015.Bumgarner, who entered the game with the second-lowest ERA in the majors amongg qualifying pitchers, nearly got his in front of a sold-out crowd at AT&T Park while helping the Giants complete the series sweep in the final game in the majors before the All-Star break.dddddddddddd He dropped his ERA to 1.94 this season.The only pitch he was leaving over the plate was his curveball, but it was breaking so much the guys had a hard time pulling the trigger on it, Arizona manager Chip Hale said. He did what he wanted to do. The velocity wasnt high but location was outstanding.The Giants (57-33) have the best record in baseball at the break for just the second time in the San Francisco era. They also did it in 1993 with a 59-30 mark.Brandon Crawford drove in three runs with a sacrifice fly in the first and a two-run single in the seventh. Buster Posey added three hits including an RBI single in the first off Diamondbacks starter Archie Bradley (3-5).BOCHY FAVORS FAN VOTINGGiants manager Bruce Bochy has expressed his disappointment in Crawford being left off the NL roster for the All-Star Game but is a firm believer in fans being included in the voting process. I think it gives every team, their fans, a chance to see one of their players, Bochy said. You can increase this roster another 10 players and somebodys still going to get snubbed.TRAINERS ROOMGiants: OF Hunter Pence (right hamstring surgery) is likely to begin a rehab assignment within the next week and could join the team when it returns to AT&T Park to begin a seven-game homestand on July 25. Were seeing light at the end of the tunnel, Bochy said. ... 2B Joe Panik (concussion) could be back with the big league club for either of the upcoming road series in Boston or New York. ... 3B Matt Duffy (strained left Achilles tendon) will resume running bases Monday. . INF Kelby Tomlinson was activated off the DL and optioned to Triple-A Sacramento.UP NEXTDiamondbacks: Arizona returns home and will open a three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday.Giants: With four players already headed to San Diego for the All-Star Game, the rest of the team will join them at Petco Park to begin a three-game series with the Padres on Friday.
